Gazing out over Alonissos's east coast, the cobalt blue of the Aegean Sea, and a clutch of emerald green islands, Adelphia is a way of life rather than just a villa. Conceived with conviviality and hedonistic pleasures in mind, it offers fabulously flexible accommodation gathered round a central Club House, acres of space in which to unwind, numerous options for al fresco living, and, in its awe-inspiring, 25m-long pool, a truly unique focal point.

The Area
Adelphia sits above the sea about half way up the east coast of Alonissos. The seafront tavernas, amenities and harbour of Steni Vala are just over a 10-minute drive. The island's main port, Patitiri, and the historic capital, Alonissos Town, are just a 20- and a 25-minute drive away.
Despite its diminutive size, 14km long and 4km wide, Alonissos has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to beaches. Arguably the best ones are to be found along the east coast and on the southern tip. There are several, including Agios Petros, Glifa, and Tzortzi Gialos within 15 minutes, while a few minutes more will take you up the coast to Agios Dimitrios, whose splendid white sands and intense blue waters are irresistible. The north of the island also boasts some idyllic coves and beaches but most of these are only accessible by boat: an excellent reason to rent one for your stay.
Alonissos, its surrounding waters and minor islands, including Peristera, Kyra Panagia, Gioura, Psathoura, Piperi and Skantzoura, form the Alonissos Marine Park, the largest of its kind in Europe. Established in 1992, its 2,250km2 is home to a fascinating variety of flora, fauna, marine life (including Mediterranean monk seals) and unspoilt natural beauty.
Finally, just across the water, is Alonissos's sister Sporades Island, Skopelos, which is highly recommended and easy to get to.
For more information about hydrofoils and ferries to and between the Sporades Islands, please see our dedicated page.
